The Stimulus to Scientific Employment is an incentive for the hiring of new researchers and the development of scientific employment plans and scientific careers by public or private institutions. It has the following instruments:

Contest Stimulus to Individual Scientific Employment - direct support to the contracting of doctoral researchers in all scientific areas, through annual competitions promoted by the FCT, in order to facilitate the continuous and systematic integration of new doctorates in the institutions.
Contest Stimulus to the Institutional Scientific Employment - a support to the development of R & D activities consecrating and stimulating the contracting of doctoral researchers by the scientific institutions, through competitions directed to the institutions.
Support for scientific employment plans in the scope of the evaluation process of R & D Units 2017-2018.
This financial support strengthens the national scientific and technological system and promotes employment opportunities for doctors by facilitating the formalization of scientific employment and contributing to greater national attractiveness for highly qualified young people. They also contribute to the rejuvenation of scientific institutions, attracting more and better scientists, and to facilitate a framework that encourages the mobility of researchers.

Contracts established under the transitional rule of Decree Law 57/2016, amended by Law 57/2017 and in accordance with the regulatory decree approved by the Council of Ministers.
